We look at these tiaras, cabriolets and front dinners on 20 changes in dishes and you think - just a hundred years have passed, but as if another world. Yes, not so different. The skirts became shorter, it's true, and so - well, nothing has changed.
We again have time to change
At the beginning of the century, the world went away from such new products as electricity, airplanes, internal combustion engine and synatograph. What at first was perceived as a toy for Gicks, completely changed the appearance of the world in a matter of decades. Nowadays, the Internet and nanotechnology took no decade already, and the years. And we are still watching the changes they contribute to our life.Technology still deprive people work
At the end of the series, everything is already clear that the days of the Dounton are considered - and especially this is clear servants who will now have to seek place under the sun. Wherever twenty hands were required, it is now necessary alone - but equipped with a thinking head and university diploma.
Women still have a brain about marriage
75% of the screen time "Abbey Dounton" heroes discussed when Mary married, for whom she married and when, finally, she married again. Very familiar. When we speak with mom, aunt, classmates, girlfriends, taxi drivers and manicures, the picture is about the same.
Education is still - a good thing
At first, nobody understood why Daisy stones the books and in general, what is the assistant of the prov of mathematics and history? And for a better life. That's for this. Today we are just recorded by courses, watch online lectures and download educational applications, even if any Mrs. Pathmor is perplexed - Golubushka, what did Portuguese surrender to you? But muscular brains are the best tool for expanding opportunities. Even better than social status and loud surname.
Women endowed with power still afraid
When Edith decided to create a feminine, a lot of eyebrows awailed up. Since then, something, of course, changed, but not especially. Both in state structures, and in the big business of women are still not enough, but it is worthwhile to do something seriously, someone in a white coat will certainly come out and recall the fact that the mission of a woman is Kyhe-Kirche Kinder. Women managers always judge more strictly than their male colleagues.1% of people still controls 99% of resources
Remember how Miss Banting teacher protested against the revealing establishment? Give her a megaphone - and it will easily come down for the first participant of the Occupy Wall Street movement. We have done a lot of things for these hundred years, but there is a gap between rich and poor and only continues to grow.
Fashion - still more than just clothes
Forties loved to draw people of the future androgynov in the same silver overalls. But they were all mistaken. Clothes are self-expression, and it is much expressive words. Respectable boosters of the old Countess, the arrogant sharovar Sibyl, the ideal laying of the ideal Mary is the same social statement as your training or shoes with a red mark.Be gay still not easy
The LGBT community also beaten well for his rights. But if now disputes about whether the working woman will disgrace his family, they stopped, then homosexuals to such a level of recognition are still far away. And so far some are like Thomas - think that the "wrong" orientation is a disease that can be cured.
Extramarital children - it's still neomalfo
Poorman Edith. No matter how cool, but she had to face a pretty because of his unexpected pregnancy. Of course, today it will not be such a tragedy - after all, we now look easier to such things. But a woman who gave birth "for himself" is if not stigma, then in any case something dubious. Imagine how the headlines in the newspapers would look if Kate Middleton gave birth to the heir to the throne before the wedding with Prince William. Or, if you return to Earth, how the unmarried woman feels with the baby in some deaf provincial town.
Young people again listens some garbage
In the 1920s, some garbage was jazz. For our grandmothers, garbage was rock and roll. Our parents are severely crossed grunge. Although the grunge garbage was not. That was real music! Not that this garbage, which they now turn on the radio.
